Jeff, I bet people still remember that car when it rolled off the line. I would think its the kind of car guys working at the plant wouldnt forget. I know it sticks out in my mind. The mint is beautiful when matched right. Man, what Id give for a mint green 6 spd coupe. Id have to add boost eventually tho. LOL Out of curiosity, how many mint green coupes are there?

Thanks guys.
Jay, the contest was based on 50% production date and 50% condition/car so even if you had #1, if it was rusted junk you'd have a difficult time winning. It is a cool honor and I'm glad to share it with you guys!!

Thanks Dave, no problem with the video but I did get a call from someone else. News to follow. BTW, I'm still waiting for my medal. I'll post a photo when it shows up.

I got my medal and a nice letter from Porsche. It is pretty cool and the medal is very heavy.
